>"That does sound interesting. I might just sample it, if you don't mind."

>"Did you want one for yourself, then?" the young man asks you, angling his ear towards you.

>"No no, I meant have a bite of hers."

>"Ohhh. Sorry." the sandy haired man says with a slightly abashed grin. "Don't hear too good outta that one." he explains before returning to filling your order.
>"And that's fine with me." Lily says as she gives you a squeeze. "Ice cream tastes better when you share it!"

>Obtain The Goods.

>Claiming Lily's goods has something of an unexpected chain reaction among the crowd, but this is perhaps best left to one's imagination.

>The sandy haired man passes along your order, once it is completed, to the red-haired catgirl to his right, who rings up your total of exactly $12.50. A bit on the pricey side, you note as you accept the two servings, but the product is worth it in the end.

>Good point.
>There is still the rear of that disused video rental store you passed on the way here.

>Let's suggest as much and go give that place a try, then

>Lily and White Rose voice no objections, and so the three of you take to horse once more, retracing your steps back up the road. Lily tosses a coin into the shamisen player's open instrument case along the way, which draws a grateful nod from the weathered-faced man.
>There are one or two more places closer to here that would potentially offer you the sort of privacy you are looking for, but given the time of day, and the volume of both foot and vechicle traffic in this part of town at the moment, you can't be sure any of them would either be uninhabited at all, or would remain that way long enough for you to take advantage of, be they used by dubious characters like the Eagle or otherwise.

>Happily, however, the truncated field behind the boarded up building is suitably unoccupied. It is a stretch of land of mixed dirt and grass, leading to a somewhat sharp incline capped by a line of trees.

>Lily's wings flutter as she hums in thought. "Well, ice cream's always better when you share it. But then again, she is a demon, so maybe it's different for them? Oops!" she blurts, covering her mouth with her free hand. "I guess I shouldn't really call her a demon, should I?"
>"Ya can always ask her yourself." Rin answers. "But it's your call, Lotus, you read folks better than we do."

>Let's find a spot that feels properly difficult to view. Then, once everyone is ready, head back to Louisetown.

>Taking a few steps to your right, to conceal yourself behind a particularly dense section of trees, you join hands with your fellow magical girls once more and travel once more down the corridor of light between the physical and the Oubliette. You take note of the message orb Louise gave you as you approach the wall of the cell, just in case it doesn't go in as easily as it came out with you when you cross the threshold. But the little blue rock remains in your pocket as securely as it was before.
>You emerge from the corridor of light virtually in the same place you entered before, the path cut between the cherry trees, with blossoms falling around you.

>Head toward where we found Louise last time.

>You set off down the path towards the lake again, but you only take a few steps before Lily, who sounds like her tongue is slightly numb now, makes you pause when she says, "Hey, she's up there!" Glancing upwards into the pink sky with its green clouds, you spy not Louise as you saw her last, but the winged snake shape she assumed when you found her beneath the CRA building.

>At the moment, she appears to be doing nothing more than flying upwards at about a 75 degree angle. She isn't moving that fast, though.

>Rin glanced upwards about the same time as you did. Even though she hasn't seen the Water Champion in this form before, she doesn't seem all that surprised to see her flying through the air in that form. Probably due to the fact that Rin herself changes shape at will. Even so, she asks, "You've seen her like that before?"
>Lily nods. "The first time we saw her."
>"Is that her natural form?"
>"Dunno."

>During this exchange, Louise stops dead as though she ran into something, and a section of the sky ripples outward with yellow and blue rings of energy.

>Let's see what she does next.

>"What was that?" Lily wonders aloud.
>"I'd say she hit the wall of this place." Rin answers.

>The serpentine-shaped demon shakes her head, and focuses her eyes on the now seemingly normal patch of sky. A moment later, she unleashes her electric breath upon the barrier, but the lightning has no more effect than her impact did, splashing against the wall but inflicting no damage upon it at all, so far as you can tell. Your connection to the Oubliette doesn't even register this strike, impressive though it may be.

>"How can she have lightning breath if she's the Water champion?" Rin asks.
